What am I doing wrong?

I'm clearly doing something wrong in trying to get OpenLDAP running, but for the life of me I don't know what it is. Here are the facts:
I'm trying to configure OpenLDAP 2.0.11 on Mandrake Linux 8.0. This is the version of OpenLDAP that came with the CDs. I installed everything and then started through the Quick Start Guide in the on-line documentation. The changes I made to the slapd.conf file are shown in the attached file; in essence I just changed the dcs to reflect my domain information.
I then started the server by running the ldap script found in /etc/rc.d/init.d. I've included the script as an attachment.
I then ran the ldapsearch command mentioned in the Quick Start Guide to check the server for proper function, which gave me the "ldap_bind: Can't connect to LDAP server" error message. I reran the command as shown:
ldapsearch -x -v -d 3 -b '' -s base '(objectclass=*)' \ namingContexts > results 2>&1
to get the results file I've attached. As you can see from that file, it appears that I can properly attach to the server, but something isn't working properly. Oh, and I'm doing this all as root, so I doubt if permissions to any of the files is the problem.
I'd really appreciate some direction on this. I can't help feeling that I'm missing something small but important.
